Aruntani and Apumayo are currently developing open pit mining operations for gold on epithermal deposits immediately to the south of Lara’s Grace Gold Project and which are derived from mineralized alteration zones similar to those outlined at Grace.

The Company’s 6,600 hectare Grace Project covers Tertiary-age volcaniclastics, cut by brecciated silica bodies and veins with wide quartz-alunite and granular silica halos, indicative of a well-preserved high-sulphidation epithermal system. An area of hydrothermal alteration extending approximately 6 kilometres in length by 1 to 1.5 kilometres in width, has been outlined to date, where rock chip samples have returned anomalous gold, silver, arsenic, mercury and antimony values.
